13. 6. Make Xbox Online Games Run Smoothly by
UPnP
UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) protocol allows the applications or host devices
to automatically find the front-end NAT device and send request to it to open the
corresponding ports. With UPnP enabled, the applications or host devices in the
both sides of NAT device can freely communicate with each other realizing the
seamless connection of the network. You may need to enable the UPnP if you want
to use applications such as multiplayer gaming, peer-to-peer connections, real-time
communication (for example, VoIP or telephone conference), or remote assistance.
Tips:
1. UPnP is enabled by default in this modem router.
2. Only the application supporting UPnP protocol can use this feature.
3. UPnP feature needs the support of operating system (e.g. Windows Vista/ Windows 7/ Windows 8, etc. Some of
operating system need to install the UPnP components).
For example, when you connect your Xbox to the modem router which has connected to
the internet to play online games, UPnP will send request to the modem router to open
the corresponding ports allowing the following data penetrating the NAT to transmit.
Therefore, you can play Xbox online games without a hitch.
